Why It's A Lie! With Jim

This isn’t just a regular packed program….. This is episode ten! So, let’s celebrate by doing something different. Usually, each episode explores three myths…today, we’re doing TEN! Ten myths that don’t need a huge explanation…so the episode won’t be any longer, but boy will you want to play it over and over for your friends.

Things Explode in space! Your hair and nails keep growing after you die, and wind turbines killing more birds than cats and windows combined! Lies lies and more lies!

If you’re stung by a jellyfish – you should urinate on the wound to lessen the pain! Your mattress doubles in weight every ten years due to your shed skin cells and dust mites and poop from the dust mites. AND You swallow eight spiders a year in your sleep. Lies Lies and LIES!

It takes seven years to digest swallowed chewing gum. Domestic Turkeys are so dumb, they’ll drown if they’re left out in the rain ! And, Tim Horton’s Coffee has some kind of chemical, other than caffeine, that makes it so darn addictive???

In this packed program….. The Spanish Flu came from Spain! It’s a very interesting story behind that… The Sun is a yellow ball of fire! And Elephants are the only mammal that can’t jump – even when things are partly true…that means they’re also part big stinky lie. This episode is dedicated to Charles Rafton McClure…who didn’t take things at face value…he asked questions.

In this packed program….. Is MSG is an evil ingredient this bad for everybody and makes them sick? Is this flavour enhancer as bad as the internet claims? Remember that big chart of the tongue that shows where it tastes sweet things and salty things and bitter things – that must be true right? It was in our classroom! AND …did Pirates make people walk the plank? This episode is for everyone…but also rated Arrrrrrrrr!

Did tons of stock brokers plunge to their deaths out of wall street buildings following the stock market crash? Did Women burn their bras en mass to protest male domination… And if you do all of your eating before eight o’clock at night will that help you lose weight because it’s bad to eat so close to bedtime?

Are Polar Bears Left Handed? Does sugar make kids hyper? And lightening never strikes the same place twice? Jim Tells you "Why it's a Lie"

Jim debunks the myths we were told, back when we believed everything we were told.
